  1. We loved this ! I also used basil and served it with the cheese and some extra cashews on top for crunch. Served it with a tossed salad. I didnt think this would be enough food when I divided it but it was very filling and plenty enough. Great recipe !

    1. You could sub nutritional yeast – start by adding a Tablespoon at a time to get the desired consistency and taste.
